Hey all, i spent the last week and some change running upwards of 5K rounds through my 22lr suppressor
anyway, i let my can sit for a few days, and I finally popped it open today.
It was absolutely disgusting. Aguila subsonic formed this clay paste shit all over the last 5 rows of baffles in my sparrow.
Anyway, it came apart with a little muscle (end cap was tight), but the half shells came apart easy
So, after cleaning the residual eley/aguila crap out of the end, the suppressor half shells still have thick pockets of lead. Its fairly hard, i tried scraping some with my gerber, and it just got shiny.
I read the other "suppressor cleaning" thread, but i was genuinely curious how to remove lead deposits from aluminum without F'ing it up (eg. The Dip)
Tips, Tricks, Anyone...?
